Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Can any one answer what VCM connection is or does in settings. My tiVo crashed 2/3 mornings on the trot and i noticed VCM connection said

Last attempt thurs jan01@00.00
Last successfull thurs jan01@00.00
Next scheduled thurs26/5@07.32

I done a connection to vm network and this seems to have sorted it now 3 above things at right or appropriate time and dates and no more crashes

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Had the Ti/Vo box a month now and overall am very impressed. It has inhanced our viewing experience and has provided flexibility beyond what we had with the V+. Really like the searching facility and the way the box gets to know what we like. It will be interesting to see how TiVo develops in the future.Have been using the remote record facility as well.

I just tried for you. There is no problem with the epg on my computer but when I try to record on both the sd and hd ITV channels I am getting an error message. VM really need to sort this out as for me remote record is the only buggy part of the tivo experience. It usually works but it needs to work every time.

The money spent on tivo was well worth it in my mind.

Have you tried making a manual connection? Home->Help & Settings->Settings->Network->Connect to the Virgin Media TV service now.

The problem is - apparently - with the TV Guide on the website, Lew, not their Tivo at home

To be fair they are two completely different systems , I've never had issues with remote record on sky whether via website , email link or Sky+ app on android , iPhone or iPad.
